This is Alyssa's new preschool. After our move a week ago to new home, she starts new preschool that is closer to our new home today. Of course, she protested when Mami left the class room today. Teacher Cindy was holding her and said 'Honey, it is okay....'

Hopefully she is doing fine... still 2 hours to go to pick her up....

Good morning Alyssa

2011-03-19T17:13:00.000-07:00

在去年聖誕節，爸媽幫靖嵐換了這張幼兒床，原意為靖嵐有自由可自己離開床，她便可能晚上會不肯睡，去客廳或睡房找我們。

但這些都還沒有發生過，媽媽在還沒幫她換床前便告訴她，她是「大個女」，快要換「大個女」床，換了後她晚上要乖乖睡，早上爸媽跟她說早晨才起床。她眞的做得到呢！

天氣預報說會下雨，但見天氣不太壞，我們也出發去Uesugi農場去。開車要花35分鐘才到。

這些手推車是用來放重重的大南瓜的。但是我們一家三口，要吃多久才吃得完？所以沒有買大大的南瓜。做做樣子來拍個照。

給Alyssa穿了格仔襯衣和牛仔褲來配合農場主題。

還有Dora佈景。

找了一個很大的南瓜，真的太重，拿不起來。

唯有去找小南瓜。

三藩市動物園

2010-09-06T15:30:00.000-07:00

這個長週末，我們去了三藩市動物園,看到了獅子、老虎、長頸鹿、熊等動物。

但很奇怪，Alyssa一直嚷着要看Flamingo （紅鶴），可能是因為在入口看見紅鶴的圖畫。是否因為它的粉紅色呢？

旋轉木馬挺好玩的。

這裡的山羊和綿羊是在圍欄外面的。可以很靠近它們。

這裡還有小蒸汽或火車。

Monterey Bay - 水族館

2010-08-07T14:11:00.000-07:00

三星期前，我們的瑞士朋友來探望我們。我們去了Monterey Bay. Monterey Bay有點冷，要穿外套才行。

在Monterey Bay, 我們去了水族館。

探望了企鵝。

探望了水母

探望了海龜及其他的海洋動物。

看看Alyssa看水母看得到多留神。

她又很想跟企鵝玩。

那兒還有機會讓你觸摸一些動物，例如海星，海參，寄居蟹等。Alyssa不敢去碰它們，要媽媽代她去摸。海星其實是有點軟，而海參則是非常的軟及奇怪，寄居蟹還好一點。

Her beloved friends - 最喜歡的家庭

2010-08-05T21:37:00.000-07:00

靖嵐常常跟Marcus哥哥玩，她又很喜歡Auntie Pat和Uncle Wai,所以她稱她的Lego公仔為Marcus哥哥,Auntie Pat和Uncle Wai。但為什麼 Uncle 變了老虎?

Happy Birthday Song 生日歌

為了準備瑞士朋友的到訪，我們去了購買被子。
Alyssa 硬要幫忙拿被子，差點給她拖爛。好笑的是，她一邊拖一大包被子，一邊還可以去挑衣服。

Baby Gym again

2010-07-25T14:02:00.000-07:00

The last time Alyssa attended this baby gym class was 4 months back, she was not playing much at that time as she was too young for it, this time, Mami registered her again in the same class and she could do more and followed most of the instructions this time.

Some warm-up exercise to begin with

Tiptoe walking

Bear crawling

Climb up ladder

Walk on high beam

Imagination game: birthday party with dolls

2010-07-25T11:46:00.000-07:00

After her 2nd birthday, Alyssa could sing the song 'Happy Birthday' and sometimes she played 'making birthday cake with play-doh' with Mami. Papi 'organized' this doll birthday party for her. All her doll friends participated with Starbucks paper cup as birthday hat.

Blocks as birthday cake and candle

Blowing the candle after the birthday songs.

The more friends, the merrier the party is.

say sorry

2010-07-25T11:34:00.000-07:00

Alyssa can say sorry, but the way she say it doesn't sound very sincere though. She would kiss Papi or Mami for her wrong doings though.

Day care - no more crying

2010-07-24T22:20:00.000-07:00

After two weeks of getting used to going to daycare, Alyssa finally got no more problem/crying when saying bye to Papi or Mami in the morning when they drop her off at the daycare. She blew kisses as well when saying bye. Another parent warned Papi and Mami that it will not be too long until she will cry because she has to leave the daycare/preschool.

Alyssa bought home from time to time craft from the daycare and also some new mandarin words and some mystery songs (new songs that mami doesn't know before)

Lego Watermelon

2010-07-24T22:16:00.000-07:00

Papi is pretty good in turning Lego into amazing things (e.g. tunnel, big slide, swing, chairs and etc). Mami is not as good in this area, usually she prefers to play play-doh with Alyssa instead. They usually use play-doh to make noodles, birthday cake, faces, cat, figures and etc.

This time, Mami made a watermelon for Alyssa though.

Po Po's name 外婆的名字

2010-07-14T22:14:00.000-07:00

This one is especially for you, grandma.

婆婆的名字

Day care

2010-07-14T22:02:00.000-07:00

Alyssa has started to go to day care for 2 weeks. This day care operates like a mini preschool as well, with one Mandarin teacher (she can speak Cantonese too, perfect for Alyssa) and one English teacher and only 6 kids.

Teacher said Alyssa said so much things and the other little kids were following her to speak some words in Cantonese. For example, 鴨鴨 in Cantonese instead of 鴨子 in Mandarin and she said a lot of "Alyssa 返屋企'", and the other kids just follow her, those kids are not speaking Cantonese at home.

She cried at the beginning week when parents are fetching their kid home (she heard the door bell and wished that it would be Papi or Mami, but then when it was not, she started to cry). She is not crying anymore for that, but in the morning, she still doesn't want Papi / Mami to leave her behind and protest a bit, but she stopped crying once Papi / Mami left the daycare.

A next stage for little Alyssa, keep it up Darling.

I love you

2010-07-14T21:48:00.000-07:00

Mommy: What do u usually say before sleep

Alyssa: Hello

Mommy: Hello. Isn't it 'I.... something something'?

Alyssa: I love you, Nobi

Mommy: And how about for Daddy

Alyssa: I love you, Eric , I love you, Eric

Talking Sentences - but in wrong way

2010-06-30T23:02:00.000-07:00

Alyssa is trying to form sentences these days, but she did it wrong most of the time.
e.g. Alyssa 朱古力奶飲 (instead of Alyssa 要飲朱古力奶)
and Alyssa 粟米食 (instead of Alyssa 要食粟米). She tended to say all the nouns first and then finish off with a verb.

Basically, she can repeat and use Cantonese vocabulary very well when they consist of only 2 Chinese words. When there is vocabulary with 3 Chinese words, the middle word is usually pronounced a bit strangely. e.g. 半圆形 (pronounced as 半行形) or 小朋友(pronounced as 小行友)

Another funny words that she uses correctly is : 發呆 (to describe herself when she is really 發呆)

睇牙醫

2010-06-28T22:38:00.000-07:00

Last week, Alyssa had her dentist appointment. Mami told her beforehand that she would go to 睇牙醫 and explained to her what she might experienced in the dentist's office. Alyssa seemed to understand and also repeated the word 睇牙醫 and seemed looking forward to the appointment with no fear.

Papi took Alyssa to the dentist's office and Alyssa started to ask about 电視記 when they were waiting and it took Papi a while to realize that she thought 睇牙醫 is something similar to 睇 Elmo from TV. Silly Girl.
